Posting for November before I forget:

December, after an initial heart attack that my 11yo Laptop might have died this week (thank fully it didn't) here are a fresh set of screenshots:







Still not sure what was up with my Laptop. It suddenly woke up to a Kernel Panic from Standby and afterwards wasn't able to find any internal storage devices. First I assumed the SSD might have died but it worked fine with a SATA to USB adapter on my PC and also my Laptop was able to boot from it using the USB workaround.
Swapping the device back in resulted in no bootable media found again. Hence I assumed some internal chip might have died. But all out of the sudden, a good puff later and re-insterting the SATA SSD once more all good ... still a little bit worried though.

December background. brrr it's cold

Bit the bullet early and decided to just move for good to a Qt environment (LXQt) since I was already building on practically nothing with IceWM. Not a huge fan of GTK's direction in the last few years and been looking to move to Qt for a long time anyway. Finally got the system set up for good and working on tweaking together a theme as I go. Long live Qt

Sorry i have to ask , who is the girl in the photo ?
I've seen her before on a couple of other sites , wierdly when discussing Linux desktops

Not 100% sure but a reverse image search revealed her as "Ms. Size Doesn't Matter the Clown" https://x.com/mssdmtc/status/1723906577088884907

Tbh until now I just thought it was a drawing by @chaussettes
